Synopsis

Directed by Courtney Hunt, 'The Whole Truth' tells the story of Richard Ramsay (Keanu Reeves), a lawyer who has to defend Mike, a young boy from a wealthy family who has murdered his father. It is really difficult that the judge acquits Mike, because some evidences against him have been found. In this situation, Ramsay has to deny the testimonies of the witnesses by telling a lie created by himself, because the young defendant does not want to talk about what really happened. The cast of this independent movie is formed by Renée Zellweger, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, James Belushi, Jodi Lyn Brockton, Kenneth Choi, Gabriel Basso, Patrick Kearns, Christopher Berry, Erica McDermott, Jackie Tuttle and Lara Grice.
